Nature-based Solutions are a powerful way to address societal challenges, such as climate change, biodiversity loss, and food security.

The International Union for Conservation of Nature's (IUCN) Global Standard for Nature-based Solutions guides users to design and implement Nature-based Solutions (NbS) in a way that allows nature to deliver its valuable ecosystem services. In addition, the Global Standard sets clear benchmarks to measure the progress of NbS. The Global Standard for Nature-based Solutions was developed through public consultation with over 800 practitioners and experts from more than 100 countries.
